Houthis fire missiles at Saudi Arabia, breaking years of calm #breakingnews #houthi #saudiarabia #yemen A fragile four-year truce in the Middle East has completely shattered after Yemen's Houthi movement launched a wave of ballistic missiles and explosive drones at Saudi Arabia’s Abha International Airport. The dramatic escalation was triggered after the Saudi-backed Yemeni military bombed the runway at Sanaa International Airport to forcefully block an unsanctioned Iranian Mahan Air flight carrying Houthi officials.
